One man's voice Thoughts, rants and commentary of a simple man

Feeling dirty after a cleanup

I have spent the better part of the last three days trying to get the last six weeks worth of blogs brought up to date. I go through these spells from time to time where things get behind. I try to keep them within a few days but this last time was rough.

I suppose it is all for a good reason though. My wife and I have recently discovered a renewed commitment to one another that has us essentially living through the honeymoon we never took. It has been an awesome four weeks that I wasn't sure would ever come upon us. We have fallen in love with each other all over again and have been able to express our love, feelings, issues and conflicts with each other without getting to the point where were are making accusations against each other but are, instead, working to hear and feel each other to work toward a solution of repairing the situation so that we can get closer to one another.

I wonder why we didn't think of this sooner? Oh yeah, because we were both fixated on being right, being heard and having things our way. No, marriage is not a Burger King. Sometimes you take what is given to you.

But I digress. It was not my intent to let my "life on the intarwebs" slip into the dark abyss that is the forgetful husband. No. Indeed my intent was to keep up with everything as though it was business as usual. But it wasn't business as usual, so things went wobbly and posts did not get posted.

To that end I wanted to make sure things were still up to date. I know that there are like three people that really follow this blog (and I appreciate all three of you) but for me, well, I find solace in writing things that happen in my life daily. Some things are downright funny. Others are plain stupid and should probably never be written down, let alone blogged about. But it is a sort of therapy for me to get these things down so I can read through them later.

So I have done that. I have gotten myself back up to speed. It has taken a while, but I am about that point where I can blog once a day and have it be the day that I am on. That feels good.

But something has left me feeling a little unsettled. Am I being honest when I update my blog posts like I have here? Is it OK to post three weeks of posts in an afternoon? I mean, I generally keep track of things that happen throughout the days and generally share them as I remember them or as I have noted them, even if they are not on the day that they happened. But I guess what I need to know is, is it wrong for me to update late? I have felt a little dirty doing it. I feel almost like I am pulling the wool over the eyes of my three readers.

So part of me feels accomplished that I have caught myself up. And part of me feels dirty that I blogged an entire month worth of posts in the span of a few days. I just want to be caught up. Is that wrong?

Anyway, since my three readers haven't mentioned anything about my absence or my seemingly lightning fast updating, I supposed I shall just run with it. At least I am up to date.

PS If you happen to be one of three readers, drop me a comment some time. I'd love to know that you are all still alive.
